64 - Contact

Many children went in and out of the orphanage in the past fourteen years indeed, but how many of them stayed in contact with the orphanage?

The question caught Mr. Brown off guard. A long pause followed before he finally spoke.

"They were boys of the same age, both omegas. I would say that they get along quite well with each other."

"Oh? Any specific details about their relationship with each other?"

A bashful smile tugged at Mr. Brown's lips. "I apologize, Agent Grant," he began, his voice strained. "It has been a long time, and so many faces have passed through these doors during the past fourteen years. I'm afraid my memory fails me at the moment."

Maximillian offered a curt nod, his gaze lingering on Mr. Brown a beat longer than necessary. "Of course," he finally said, a hint of something unreadable flickering in his eyes. "Thank you for your time, Mr. Brown. There is no need to send me off."
